difference between velocity and acc

Question

What is the difference between acceleration and velocity?

Answer 1

Velocity of an object is the speed of the object and the direction of its motion. However, acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time it takes for the change to occur.

Velocity is describing how an object in a 2+ dimensional plane is changing its position with 1 or 2 dimensional time. 


Acceleration is describing how an object changes its velocity with time. 
Velocity is defined as Displacement of a body in a particular time. 

Velocity = Displacement/Time. Whereas Acceleration of a body is defined as change in Velocity of a body at a particular instant of Time.


Acceleration = Final Velocity-Initial Velocity/Time 
Now If Velocity is Uniform or Constant then Acceleration is Zero 
The same difference as between velocity and position. 



Velocity is the change of position per time unit. 

Acceleration is the change of velocity per time unit. If an object, for example, goes faster and faster (or slower and slower), then it is accelerating.
